After praising the Buddha of buddhas for his generosity towards all those who assembled before him, the Bodhisattva of Great Adornment asked the World Teacher how anyone could become perfect in the highest level of Buddhahood and in the shortest amount of time possible.

O Noteworthy Dharma Sons, by carefully applying the teachings of the sutra of innumerable meanings, the precious jewel of a bodhisattva's realization is yours.

Every teaching that I have given, including this one you are about to hear, is empty of all good and bad qualities.

Living beings, having the tendency to indiscriminately discriminate against themselves and others, always propound and extrapolate upon how this is different from that and how enlightenment is or is not natural to living beings everywhere.

As if bound by an ever turning wheel of perpetual sufferings, living beings in reality are only pretending to be ignorant of the whole truth as I innately and intimately know of it.

Observing the profundity and depth of compassion and its comprehensive web of binding and liberating influences, maintain the emptiness of the law instead of the apparent fullness of the law.

Even though I have skillfully delineated and pronounced many severe and illuminating laws, know that each law appears and disappears as the mind appears and disappears.

Not mistaking a law for Buddhahood, renounce the desire to be a strict adherent of the law, for a law is conditioned by time and circumstance and you are more clearly not, o follower of the Middle Way.

Just as thoughts appear to be real when they are in the process of arising, so too do laws appear to be real as I speak of them and glorify their use.

As the desires of living beings multiply, so too do the manners of teaching the laws multiply. When the laws are seen to multiply as if by thin air, so shall you see the innumerable meanings of my fundamental doctrine be multiplied.

All laws being based on the one law of boundless emptiness, realize how everything is void of form or an eternal nature.

The victory of indestructibility is for those who can see through the form of my teachings and into the hidden nature of Buddhahood.

This is what is known as the Great Vehicle of Deliverance.

Out of fear of having living beings misunderstand this Law of laws, please continue to explain to us the deeper essence of this doctrine of boundless emptiness.

Meditating under the Bodhi tree for so long and feeling the complexity of all of my teachings and laws, the Truth of truths has not yet been openly revealed for fear of it being quickly degraded and stampeded upon by the many who come to me to relieve them of their sufferings.

The Law being comparable to water that purifies, no matter whether the quantity of water is large or small, the law nonetheless washes away the inherent delusions of living beings.

Think of my teachings as being graded along different lines of attainment. Some only need a little bit of water to realize the Buddha nature, whereas other need a whole ocean's worth before anything takes effect.

As the meanings that are found in my teachings varies, so too does the type of enlightenment that is obtained vary alongside the desires of the practitioner's mind.

Though of one enlightened seed, I appear to sprout forth in every direction and in every heart of every living being.

Though of one mind, I appear to be of many minds and of many formed and formless states.

Though of one enlightened stream of awareness, I appear to be of many different streams, each heading into its own particular destination.

This is the world of the Buddhas. Incomprehensible except to the Comprehending Buddha, the one life of nirvana is all that is and ever will be.

Seeking for enlightenment, enlightenment evaporates before your eyes. Looking into emptiness, who is looking and who is seeing? Realizing that there is nothing to realize, a Buddha lies content at night.

Spinning The Dharma Wheel Once More, every meaning that I have come to embody is without an existence of its own.

The mind and the heart is empty of suffering. Therefore, to think and to feel is to be liberated from the processes of thinking and feeling.

Contradicting contradictions, duality is unity when unity is without a form.

The term Bandagi Saheb: Bandagi is from the Sanskrit 'vandana' -- a salutation, and Saheb is a word for Master. Bandagi Saheb thus can be rendered: "I offer salutation or greeting to the Master dwelling in you". Bandagi Saheb! Bandagi Saheb reminds me of the word "Namaste", which means: "The God in me bows to the God in you." The Light and Sound of God is within everyone: "We are all brothers and sisters in God. Whenever Masters come, they give us a practical demonstration of divinity. Those who do what they say, develop spiritually." (Kirpal Singh)

The Buddha, meditatively poised before a great assembly of disciples on the way to nirvana, was surrounded by the most enlightened of bodhisattvas and righteous dharma kings.

Approaching the ever serene Buddha who was seated in a lotus position, the congregation of sages and scribes offered vast amounts of perfumed flowers and incense sticks to the illustrious and illumined One.

Having numberless good qualities all pertaining to the state of awakening, the greatest of bodhisattvas is he or she who has attained perfection in the meditative wisdom of complete emancipation.

At peace with the blissful indifference of one who is in the tranquility of nirvana, the mind of a Buddha is as vastly clear as the infinity of profound awareness.

Immobile, yet dedicated to the emancipation of the universe's chain of living beings, a bodhisattva labors on such a task for thousands upon thousands of years in order to completely perceive the reality of formed and formless awareness.

Spinning the wheel of the law of buddhahood for the greater good of samsara's sorrowful nature, even just one drop of their illumined minds can serve to remove the scorching fever of material consciousness.

Opening the gates of serenity, the bodhisattvas emanate forth the rays that contributes to ending the continued and seemingly endless growth of old age, disease and death.

Gathering the roots which are of a virtuous stock and spreading seeds of enlightenment everywhere, all chains of living beings will eventually become as effulgent as the sun behind the sun.

Equipped with the eternal pleasures of true illumination, the task of the bodhisattvas is speedily accomplished when suffering is no longer seen as an enduring factor in the consciousness of living beings.

As plentiful in dharmic realizations as a field in need of harvesting, they lead living beings back to themselves and back to the protection of the Buddha nature.

Skillfully carrying all living beings across the frightening ocean of pleasant births and painful deaths, their teachings are the greatest of medicines since they greatly subdue the inner beasts of discriminatory thoughts and lion like emotions.

Complete in all perfections and powerful in purificatory powers, even the Buddha himself is further stabilized by their vows of service and expanded detachment.

The Bodhisattva of Great Adornment, along with his companions of the fully turned dharma wheel, showered the Buddha with delicate praises from heaven's guardians.

O stabilizer of gods, men and wild beasts of the night, the fragrant breeze of your essence permeates the whole atmosphere of enlightened beings. Calm and resolute like no one else in the three worlds, you have so easily conquered the false prestige of the mind.

Unconditioned by every and all possible conditioning factors, there is no self to be found in your formless and deathless ground of being.

Surmounting the difficulties and ease of living with samsara's dualities, your mind is as colorless as the night's sky.

Born out of the lotus heart of infinite compassion, your state of fearlessness inspires all living beings to walk with you despite not being free of good and bad karma.

The beauty of your body is unmatched. As pure and scintillating as gold, the deep blue curls of hair that you possess are as magnanimous as the moon's pale, yet comforting light.

Like a mirrorless mirror, your facial features are as attractive as the vast array of planets dancing before us.

Marked with innumerable auspicious signs, the visibility of your form is at once grounding and utterly transcendent to anything that we know of or have seen of late.

Undistracted by your own irrevocable beauty, all living beings adore you with the joy and egolessness of a Buddha.

May we thus devote ourselves to your most thoughtful of precepts and commandments.

May we thus become as wonderful and extraordinary as your forward thinking mind.

May we thus break our bonds with the infinite and unending circles of life and death.

Pure, boundless and free, your teachings bring forth the best of discourses and the best of transcendental qualities.

For limitless periods of time, you have kindly and selflessly worked for the perfection of the human and non-human races.

Letting go of every known pleasure and every known boon, and sacrificing all of himself for not one word of praise, we bow to you, o Buddha of the Middle Way, for all that you have freely given to us.

The King of cosmic and terrestrial law, you are the perfection of disciplined renunciation and unbounded consciousness.

Take care to retain attention within the two eyebrows, Purifying the mind and body fix thy gaze at one center; Then shalt thou penetrate into the Beyond, seeing the Reality face to face, O Tulsi! The dust of the Saints spreads before thee a carpet of Light. (Sant Tulsi Das)

Greetings Dear Ones we are the High Council of Orion. It’s with great joy that we share with you today. Moving in a slightly different direction than the practical nature of our last message.

Today's message is the message of Sacred, and the importance of Sacred in your life. Sacred it is a word that often ascribed to religious institutions, and for some there may be some resistance to that word based on their own history. Some may lovingly rush out and embrace that word, that concept, that feeling, that idea. What were asking you today is to reconnect with the word Sacred in a slightly different way. Perhaps some of you have already connected with the word in this way, but for many this will be a new exciting idea. Historically the word Sacred described places or objects that were outside of oneself. Which is true, objects can be Sacred and places can be Sacred because of the energy imbued in them, because of how they've been used or what has historically gone on in a particular place. Most of you I’m sure have felt that when you've gone to a beautiful church or synagogue or place of worship. And whether you ascribe to that religious philosophy or not, you feel the palpable energy within the Sacred space, that has come about through generations of common thought, desire and connection in that space.

But today were going to talk to you about the Sacred in your life. Finding that Sacred space for yourself every day and connecting with it. That Sacred space could be a physical place in your life within your home, perhaps even within your office. It's that that place where every day you choose to take those few moments, or those many moments out for yourself. Where the worries and concerns and thoughts of the everyday world and the people in it, have an opportunity to fall away and give you an opportunity to reconnect with your core essence. Reconnect with your motivation and your desire to be here on the planet at this time, “to fill yourself up” on yet another level.

We ask you to find that Sacred space for yourself, it can be as simple as putting a picture on the wall that reminds you to go within, and as you are going to bed at night you can sit on your bed for a few minutes and connect to the image, drawing you within, finding that Sacred moment for yourself. Perhaps you have a room in your home that you can transform into a Sacred space. This can be done simply, for Sacred comes from the heart, not from the object and physical surroundings. However the physical surroundings can support you connecting to Sacred in your life. For many of you, Sacred is connected to through nature, being in the mountains or by the ocean, being in the desert, under the beautiful tree in your backyard, or standing in the purity of freshly fallen snow. Finding the Sacred in your life every day gives your humanity, your human experience a little room for the sigh, for the out breath, for the relaxation.

Does it need to take hours? Does it need to be laborious? Doesn't need to be efforting? No.

It can be just a few moments in time where you breathe, connect with your heart, connect with nature, whatever is Sacred to you and brings about or evokes that feeling of Sacred. The feeling that you are more and connected to more. This supports your physical body, it supports your emotional body, it supports your mental processes, it supports your relationships with your loved ones, with your coworkers and even with everyone you interact with. As you find the Sacred moments within your day, you start to connect with the Sacredness of who you are. As you do that you more easily see it in the world around you, and as we've said before, as you see that light, that Sacredness within others, within experiences within nature within animals and plants. You see it within yourself. When you see it within yourself you can see it without, and you are moving ever closer to living in that state of oneness. We encourage each one of you to go within and find the Sacred within yourself and within your day, each and every day.

We only experience reality through a very narrow slit of perception thus a great deal of information is beyond our ability to experience directly and any tool we use to 'translate' this information, that is beyond the range of our sense, into a way we can perceive will cause it to innately be flawed. For example we cannot see infrared light and if we use a tool, such as infrared binoculars, this does not show us the true reality as it is. Rather, this information is translated into a way that our sense can perceive it and again is alters the 'truth'.

Of the information that does come into our senses we process about 200 billion bits of information every second but our brains filter out a vast majority of it. It boils down to a few thousand bits of information that most of which we are not conscious of such as temperature, heart rate and other environmentally based stimuli.

So, of all the information that is available in the universe to experience we really are only experiencing a tiny fragment of not only the 'whole' universe but also a tiny fragment of what we can absorb.

How does our brains filter out all of this information and how does it determine what is useful and what is not? I think this relates well to the concept of a paradigm. In a paradigm, which we all live within, we share a collective 'view' of reality and experience what we expect to experience. No doubt the ancient Roman's had a very different philosophical and spiritual world view (paradigm) then we do now. Interestingly, whatever the truth is, and despite the convictions people then or now, exists independently from what we simply desire to be truth. I don't think many, although I know a few, would argue that the ancient Roman and Greek gods are the product of myths and legends many people cling just as strongly to the myths and legends of the modern day.

Depending on what you believe, and think about the fact that it is simply what we believe that makes the difference, we see and experience what we expect. While some people can see Jesus and a miracle in a piece of toast I simply see a piece of toast that resembles the mythical representation of what Jesus is believe to have looked like. How ironic that all the evidence in the world shows that there is no description of what he looked like and was likely brown and not white. Yet, when people see what the collective consciousness of what Jesus might have looked like in a piece of toast it is a miracle for some people. This is just an example but we all do this constantly as everything we experience is filtered through our biases, beliefs, fears, ego and more. You cannot run away from this or simply say "I don't do that" because we all do and I am not sure we could effectively function if we did not.

All of this and more is what compels me to believe (one of the few beliefs I admit to) that awakening and/or enlightenment is possible is that it stands to reason that if the filters were taken away the truth would be revealed much like cleaning a very dirty window. Even with all the filters taken away that limit our perceptions of reality as it really is we also still have vast amounts of information that is beyond our senses. Tools help but if this information is still being filtered by the same means then perhaps the saying of "you can see more with your eyes closed then open" makes some interesting sense.

If our senses are only giving us a limited picture of the whole and yet we are intimately connect to the whole, as both science and mysticism strongly suggest and I dare suggest prove, then a different part of ourselves would be needed to experience a grander truth. This is where mediation and other related things come into importance in that part of the goal is to stop the filtering of information and to 'become like a mirror' and simply reflect the truth of the universe which is reflecting ourselves.

So we are walking through our lives in a daze and flood of information we only lightly can experience and the rest is filtered out. Of this only a very small part of the information is conscious at any one time and more often then not we walk around in a light stage of unconsciousness. Think of when you drive your car and you 'zone out' and at some point 'snap' back into the moment. You felt like you were conscious during that time period but in reality you were in a state of mind that resembles hypnosis far more then being conscious. Further, we always feel like the 'sense of I' always exists within us. However, not even this is true as it is much like a refrigerator light. Whenever you look into the fridge the light comes on but you don't know what is happening when you are not looking. Our sense of self and consciousness is basically the same in that the moment you take a look to see if 'you' are there you instantly are but once you close the door per say, or focus your attention on something else, how do you know where 'you' went. I hope this point is clear because I personally find it rather thought provoking.

Reality is not what we think it is and we've all taken the blue pill to some degree but it is possible, it has to be, to be able to be free from this delusion. However, would anyone believe you or understand a word you said if you saw reality as it actually exists. Unlikely.

Recently, I've been to another spiritually related show and as always I am bedazzled by the beautiful crystals of all shapes and kinds. I am honestly a huge geek when it comes to this sort of thing and while I have a small collection now I hope to expand it dramatically over time.

Something that might be interesting to note is that crystals used to not be all that expensive. It was not until crystals started to be sold with the concepts of them having various 'powers' of sorts that crystals prices started to really climb. I find it interesting to compare to a experience I had many years ago when I sold, as a rep, some metaphysical products to various stores. We could sell a candle for a dollar lets say but we if we sold it with a piece of well written and presented paper around it with a explanation of what zodiac sign this was related to then we could sell it for ten dollars.

How does anyone know that Amethyst can enhance your third eye and why don't we seem to care that such a thing has never been nor may ever be actually proven. Why does a crystal need to a special power to be special? I know we can look in a book, or on a list of some sort, what all these crystals are supposed to be able to do. My question is though where do these books get their information from? I suspect just other books and those books are likely from other books and so on.

Many years ago now I was really into crystals and all of the mystical powers but really wanted to find out what and how could anything like that work or matter. There was only one small idea that seemed even remotely rational and that is harmonics. Basically, everything vibrates within a certain frequency of its own. Like a lamp, person, earth and whatever vibrate at a certain frequency and if something vibrates at that same frequency there could be a 'harmonic' effect that in some way connects the two. So some extent size does matter and we would effect a crystal far more then it would for us so it would if anything require a meditation in a very special way to even make a connection. However, even when that was done how would anyone know what effect that it actually had with such subjective things such as happiness.

It stands to reason that the 'powers' that crystals are supposed to have are really focused on well done marketing that helps sells a lot of product. It is not a 'bad' thing per say but it is misleading and that seems unfair. As beautiful as a flower can be it does not need to have mystical powers given to it to make it more special. Crystals are an amazing and beautiful thing that we have on earth and I want many more of them. I just have not seen a single thing that would even remotely suggest that they have any super powers and would love to hear if anyone does.

A friend of mine & I were talking lately about the power of manifesting, the Law Of Attraction, how it works for the people in general and she came up with following quote:

"The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The amount of work is the same."

- Carlos Castaneda

A little "Aha-Moment" happened & I remembered something I understood already a while ago (..for years ...). Actually, the point is, when we visualize something to become manifest, we do it with our mind and the mind, assisted by our brain, is part of the dual world we live in. Therefore when we, let's say, intend to manifest something like ... a new house, a better carrier or to meet a potential soul-mate ... we might eventually get it but also the backside comes along with it in most cases. Why? because it's been done in the realm of Duality and not of Unity. It has to come from a place that isn't subject to the influence of duality. And physically, we only have one place that is by nature In-sync with Unity: THE HEART! Never wondered how comes that they mention very little the importance of the heart and how to create from there in the teachings of the Law Of Attraction?! Don't get me wrong, it is quite exact from the standpoint of the law as such, explanatory spoken. But from a practical manifesting point of view ... it's pretty useless in 90% of the cases. They fail on creating from the heart and/or explain that part of the story and one of the only guys I remember speaking of it, is Drunvalo Melchizidek. What makes also everything different is the amount of work that is asked on you to put into it; coming from the heart ... that isn't required, but from the mind ... it is! It has a lot to do with our Egos. And where does the Ego live?! In the mind Ego should not be left out or behind, but just be part of the experience by letting go the commands to the heart. We (me included) somehow always choose the way that polishes the ego but makes our experiences rather way more ... difficult and filled with stones than the experience of those who actually didn't think much about what they wanted or where they want to land & just got it/there nearly instantly ... The heart is way more powerful than the mind, therefore .. why do we always appeal to it on a 2nd place only, and go over the mind 1st?! A little bit contradictory, as we most probably all know by now ... But somehow, the so called general "New Age Movement" keeps managing to tie us to the mind by keeping us away from the heart; maybe not intentionally ... but it does. Something to meditate about and that I am grateful for (" ,).

Wayne Dyer is credited with the statement, “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” Dyer’s statement is in harmony with ‘The Law of Cause and Effect. Nothing transpires by chance or outside the Universal Laws. Every action has a reaction or consequence and we, ‘reap what we have sown.’

The Law of Cause and Effect includes ‘thinking.’ This aspect of The Law of Cause and Effect shows you that the way you think brings the results you experience in your life.

A good strategy for success is to look at your current results, for insight into what you are truly thinking, not only in your conscious mind, also in your unconscious and subconscious mind.

When you see the results that stem from your thoughts, you can consciously make the choice to keep thinking those same thoughts or change them. The choice is yours.

Here’s to creating the results you desire. ###

OUT OF MEDITATION, EVERYTHING ELSE WILL BECOME GRACEFUL. You will be able to see deeply into your own acts, into your own behavior, and you will be able to have some compassion for the other person -- his human frailty, the possibility of his committing mistakes.

WHEN SOMEBODY COMMITS A MISTAKE you don't have to be angry, you have to be more compassionate, so that he does not start feeling guilty. Because you don't understand the psychology of things: if one person commits a mistake and you become angry -- and your anger is justified because the mistake has been done by the other person -- YOUR ANGER CREATES HUMILIATION IN THE OTHER PERSON. That humiliation becomes a wound which wants revenge. So the other person will wait until you commit a mistake -- and you are not beyond committing mistakes -- and then he will take revenge with a vengeance.

NEVER MAKE ANYONE FEEL GUILTY. Because if you make the person guilty he or she can only hate you, love becomes impossible.

That's why I repeat again and again: LOVE NEEDS AS A BASIC FOUNDATION, MEDITATION. Only in the heart of meditation roses of love can grow. That is the right soil, there is no other way.

Ok, I've done a few months worth of test, and I'm now convinced that I made the sun come out and shine just now. I wanted to keep my mouth shut, but it has been cloudy all day, and I also have been inside all day. After my 6th meditation today I got the inspiration to go outside to communicate with mother nature. When I stepped outside the scene was all brown and gloomy. I sat down and start meditating on the back deck. I focused my consciousness on my heart and every part of my being and starting communicating to the sun through feelings and words that were a the closest vibrational match to the way I felt inside. In these thoughts and words, I told the sun that I loved it, and that I knew most people were afraid to look at it, or play in it for very long, but I told it that I loved it, and that I appreciated what it does for us everyday. And I would see beauty in it right now if it would allow me to see it today. And as I began to disconnect, I felt the top of my head getting hot. I could feel the sun rise in my soul. And when I opened my eyes I was amazed at what I saw. Butterflies were flying by, the grass looked greener and the sky lit up the sky in the most silky blue that blew me away. Birds chirped and all. It as too ironic. Maybe I'm out of my mind but It sure feels good to loose it lol. (This has happened around 20 times that I recall within the last 9 months).

It's a feeling that's hard for me to describe or explain, but by listening to my soul and translating that highest feeling into the highest thoughts and words is helping me express experiences a little more verbally clear to you. I can definitely feel the shift in the air. Everything in my soul is saying that I'm here to assist in the process of evolution.

True beauty starts from within. Outside sources can inspire us to SEE our own beauty but they do not have anything to do with us BEING beautiful. We, again, have the choice. The choice to rely on others to feel beautiful or… to look deep within ourselves and BE beautiful.

Ladies and gentlemen of this world… YOU are beautiful energy. It’s time to see it for yourself and BE it.
